So question about a hand I played today in a 1/3 game in fl. Here are some details about players in the hand. Hero is right aggressive doesn't really play many pots but plays most hands strong when in and is about 250bb deep. Villain 1 pretty tight abc player about 100bb. Villain 2 very loose player splashes in a lot of pots. About 200bb deep. Villain 3 short stack player with about 25bb.

The hand in question. Villain 3 straddles to 6$ From button villain 1 and 2 both call. Hero has 76hh and calls. Villain 3 checks. 4 handed flop of J53hh villain 2 bets 9$. Heeo raises to 23$ villain 1 calls villain 3 shoves in for 52$ V2 calls. Hero makes it 145$ to go. V1 folds V2 tank calls. Turn 8x and V2 leads 175$?!?!? What does hero do here? Also sorry this is my first post in here. Hopefully I explained this properly

Flop action is confused somewhere. V1 shouldn't get an action between Hero and V3. You need to clarify players positions better here, the action only makes sense if your the BB but you don't say that anywhere.

Preflop, even out of the BB you should fold here unless your fairly sure V3 isn't going to raise/shove. The straddle turns his stack into just over 10BB effective and he should shove anything playable and some garbage, but he could be that bad. Flop is too aggressive with just a low draw, you should mostly fold here. V2's bet looks a lot like price setting a draw, which almost has to be a better flush, and V3 is obviously going to shove anything he wants to play here.

On turn, this depends entirely how what V2 leads here and how he reacts to your action. If you think a shove can get him out of the pot, then go for it, even if you miss your draw taking down the side pot will make you a small profit. If you think V2 is never folding, then you need to fold because you may not have many clean outs. If V2 is betting a better flush draw for the same reason I suggested shoving above, your have only 6 outs. If V2 has a set, you have more outs but with one card to come your not getting the odds you need. Given that V2 has put more then half of his stack in, I expect he never folds. In general, turn is a bad situation you shouldn't be in, your over playing the flop has invested too much with just a weakish draw.

This is pretty hard to read and understand the action. We need stack sizes for sure. As far as the hand goes I don't see any reason to be going crazy and raising especially if we are shorter stacked. Just call with good odds to draw, we need to remember that this was a limped pot and we could have fewer outs than you think.

As far as the turn decision goes the pot is way too huge to fold now. With 15 outs we only need 2/1 to call. I think you needed to take your foot off the gas pedal and play poker. No need to be reraising flop just take your odds on the call once the short stack is all in.
